Just got the slk 947 HS and need a fan that pushes off good CFMs and it not a noise-bomb. Enermax has one with 52cfm with 36dbs. Any others out there? Thanks...

F-DISK-Format-Reinstal DO DA!! DO DA!!
 
I have the same heatsink and am using a 92mm Tornado. Yeah at fun speed it howls like nothing else but with a fan bus controller I can turn it way down. It isn't silent by any means but even my noise-hating freinds find it quiet enough.

If he had the technical know-how and the money I'm sure he would do water cooled. He's got one of those Zalman-flower-looking things with the fan mounted to the case. I think it is a CNPS6000-Cu. When he has got it tucked under his desk, it is more or less silent.

You need to mod the wire clip to hold its casing on the bottom. And GOD ALMIGHTY this thing OWNS.
 
Man that's really low CFM for the amount of noise it puts. the 120mm Delta pushes 190CFM at 59dB.
